Hello, is this a known bug or do only I have this issue? Since the last system update, I no longer have any icons in emacs. The toolbar is just empty. Thanks in advance. Manuel

[arch-general] Since last update (yesterday) Gnome switches me to VT1 after some time
by Manuel Reimer 10 Apr '16

10 Apr '16

Hello, I hope someone can reproduce this one and can point me to some bug report. I'm using the closed source Nvidia driver and a default Gnome installation. Since the last update, the following happens: Usually Gnome runs two X servers. One on ":0" and one on ":1". The last one is the one, I actually use when I'm logged in. GDM keeps running on :0 (VT1). So if I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, I get back to the login screen. This exactly same configuration also applies to my laptop with an Intel GPU. Here, I also have two X servers running all the time. Since yesterday's update, after some time the first X server terminates for whatever reason. In "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", I see: [ 92.389] (II) systemd-logind: got resume for 13:64 [ 92.389] (II) systemd-logind: got resume for 13:67 [ 92.389] (II) systemd-logind: got resume for 13:65 [ 92.389] (II) systemd-logind: got resume for 13:66 [ 95.021] (II) systemd-logind: got pause for 226:0 [ 95.021] (II) systemd-logind: got pause for 13:64 [ 95.021] (II) systemd-logind: got pause for 13:67 [ 95.021] (II) systemd-logind: got pause for 13:65 [ 95.021] (II) systemd-logind: got pause for 13:66 [ 405.532] (II) evdev: Sun USB Keyboard: Close [ 405.532] (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" [ 405.532] (II) systemd-logind: releasing fd for 13:65 [ 405.546] (II) evdev: USB Mouse: Close [ 405.546] (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" [ 405.546] (II) systemd-logind: releasing fd for 13:64 [ 405.567] (II) evdev: Power Button: Close [ 405.567] (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" [ 405.567] (II) systemd-logind: releasing fd for 13:66 [ 405.593] (II) evdev: Power Button: Close [ 405.593] (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" [ 405.593] (II) systemd-logind: releasing fd for 13:67 [ 405.634] (II) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Deleting GPU-0 [ 405.857] (II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file. This wouldn't be a problem, as logging out restarts this X server allowing me to log in again. The problem is, that this X server termination switches the virtual terminal, so it brings me back to VT1 and I have to switch back to VT2 manually. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? One possible solution for a (temporary) fix could be if there is any way to ask GDM somehow to immediately terminate this X server on VT1 after logging in. Thanks in advance Manuel

[arch-general] gnome-keyring collecting passwords just for midori
by Javier Vasquez 08 Apr '16

08 Apr '16

Hi, I learned some time back that one could make gnome capture midori passwords through: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/midori-passwordmanager I tried it by then, but I didn't like because gnome-keyring was capturing all passwords. I don't use desktop environment, so I was using in my ~/.xinitrc: eval $(gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=pkcs11,secrets) As I use ssh-agent + keychain, I just removed the ssh agent... However that was capturing every password, from firefox, thunderbird, etc. Although one could refuse to capture them, it was uncomfortable to me, so I decided NOT to use gnomekeyring just for midori. The thought I have, is that perhaps there's a way to specify gnome-keyring to only pay attention to midori passwords, and nothing else. Though I don't see that in its options through the gnome-keyring-daemon man page. If there's a way, please let me know... Thanks, -- Javier

[arch-general] hunspell-en
by Ralf Mardorf 08 Apr '16

08 Apr '16

Hi, is there a reason that hunspell-en is likely broken all the times, after there was the switch to the new version scheme? A bug against the new package is already reported: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/48839 $ downgrade hunspell-en Available packages: 1) hunspell-en-2016.01.19-1-any.pkg.tar.xz (local) 2) hunspell-en-2016.01.19-1-any.pkg.tar.xz (remote) 3) hunspell-en-2015.05.18-4-any.pkg.tar.xz (remote) 4) hunspell-en-2015.05.18-3-any.pkg.tar.xz (remote) 5) hunspell-en-2015.05.18-2-any.pkg.tar.xz (remote) 6) hunspell-en-2015.05.18-1-any.pkg.tar.xz (remote) 7) hunspell-en-7.1-3-any.pkg.tar.xz (remote) 8) hunspell-en-7.1-2-any.pkg.tar.xz (remote) select a package by number: 7 Perhaps not all 6 versions are broken, at least the last version that I used without issues was 7.1-3. Regards, Ralf

[arch-general] automount failure usb storage
by message 05 Apr '16

05 Apr '16

Readers, USB storage media used to appear automatically on the xfce desktop, but not now. From dmesg | tail: uas: probe of 3-1:1.0 failed with error -12 Automount has seemingly failed today. The udev wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Udev) doesn't make sense to a weak novice like me. Other advice please?

[arch-general] System like glue, High IO Wait.
by Carsten Feuls 04 Apr '16

04 Apr '16

Hello Everybody, I have some trouble with my ArchLinux Installations. The Systems are very unresponsive (long waiting on gui interaction). In Htop I can see a high CPU wait time,and a high cpu load, but in iftop no IO load is on the drives. I have these Probelem with 3 Arch Installations. These systems run kf5. All installations runs ArchLinux Stable (not testing), and the Installations are up to date. On my parents PC the problem only appear after the last update. I have copy the output to pastebin. http://pastebin.com/E4xnQKhJ For me it looks like a graphics bug. I have downgraded the kernel to an older version but it does not resolve the problem. Maybe anybody know something about that. Or have an larger expertise in investigating this bug. I use archlinux now longer than six years. I have solved much problems. But this bug makes me crazy.. Sincerely yours Carsten Feuls

[arch-general] Sysctl.d configuration ignored (possible pebkac)
by Garmine 42 01 Apr '16

01 Apr '16

Hi! I believe it's a layer 8 error, but I can not change kernel.sysrq at boot to anything else than defined by Arch packages. I read the manpage, wiki and google a few times yet I can't spot my mistake. I have this file: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17 Mar 23 02:05 /etc/sysctl.d/10-sysrq.conf With this content: kernel.sysrq = 1 Yet any time I log in the `kernel.sysrq = 16` parameter from /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-default.conf overrides the one I defined above. What did I do wrong? Thank you in advance! Regards, Garmine
